Creating.

Do you ever sit and wonder,
who you affect?
Words, thoughts, actions.
Those you do and those you don’t?
The people we’re creating.

How do we create them?
Is it through how we treat them?
How we test them, stretch them to the limits?
Maybe we create them simply by
what we fail to do?

The people we’re creating.
They watch us.
Listen to us.
Ignore us and condemn us.
They love us and hate us.
We create them.
They create us.

The people we’re creating.
Taking to the defence.
You’re offence needs to rest.
Taking it to heart.
Sometimes, quitting is the hardest part.

You’ve gotta be careful.
You never know…
The people we’re creating.
